Ethics in Aging: Mental Health and Older Adults
Friday, May 10, 8:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Legacy Plaza East Conference Center, 5330 East 31st St.

Join LIFE Senior Services for a three-hour seminar where we’ll delve into the important topic of ethical considerations when working with older adults navigating mental health challenges. Throughout our session, we’ll explore the prevalence of mental health disorders, including substance use and abuse, and highlight the essential need for mental health care among older populations. Additionally, we’ll shed light on the stigmas faced by older adults, which often hinder equitable access to care. Together, we’ll define and tackle the ethical dilemmas associated with substance abuse and severe mental illness in this demographic, with the aim of enhancing professional competency in dealing with dementia and distinguishing it from other mental health conditions. We look forward to having you join us for this insightful and collaborative discussion! This class offers 3 hours of ethics CEUs. For more information, download the Ethics in Aging brochure.
